The Popular Rotorcraft Association, which we like to call just "PRA," is a non-profit organization. It’s really a group of like minded people that is trying to foster, promote, and popularize education in rotorcraft among its members and the general public
PRA, like all organizations, is only as strong as the members that step up and volunteer to actually make anything new happen.
The true hero’s are behind the scenes creating new benefits for the many while the rest are out flying.
We need you!!
